Those wishing to explore Canada's Wild West will want to check out Fort Whoop-Up. Originally known as Fort Hamilton but later adopting the nickname, it was a whiskey trading post for First Nations members and the site of various illegal activities. The famous Whoop-Up Bug Juice, an alcohol spiked with ginger, molasses, and red pepper, is colored by black chewing tobacco and boiled down to produce "firewater." It is highly prized alcohol, and it's sold here. The fort's flag was once mistaken for an American flag, leading to a raid by the North-West Mounted Police.
